I will have to look at the posts more closely. Had noticed NOTHING like this.

It's NOTHING more than your computer being a 1948 Toyota Deer Model. Time for an update. The gerbils inside the computer want to retire!

Only watch if you like being scared. The Shining (1980) - Here's Johnny! Scene (7/7) | Movieclips - YouTube
Yes indeed, he is a master of it. The Shining - funny story - my son was admitted to intensive care for NOTHING more than a case of mononucleosis when he was about 15. They put him there because his case was so severe they were giving him morphine for the pain among other meds and he needed to be on a monitor. Since it was so late at night, they rolled in an extra bed for me and told me I could stay there overnight with him. So surfing the television channels and being an avid Stephen King fan at the time, he came across The Shining and asked if I would mind if we watched it. Of course, I said not at all. Well, by the time that movie was over I sure could have used some of that morphine just to sleep.

Hey, don't blame it on my old gray mare. But I will say, sometimes it's NOTHING but a lesson in frustration when you need to track down a replacement for a part gone bad and they want to charge you an arm and a leg for it.

I can relate to that. And not for NOTHING. The book by the same name takes you even more into this history of the Overlook Hotel.

For some reason when I was quite young there was a movie I frequently had nightmares about. It was Fantasia Fantasia (1940) - Rotten Tomatoes. I turned these animated creatures into the things of nightmares. Much like Stephen King did with a clown in It.

Computers are like microwaves. When they go bad you do NOTHING but throw them out and get another..

I don't even know how to respond to this. Probably NOTHING would be best. Maybe this -

Nobody can post NOTHING if I'm out for the day? Is that how it works around here?

Better watch out, K - hubby and I went out to celebrate meeting a long awaited financial goal for the purposes of retirement. We also received some news recently that hopefully hubby will be able to confirm in a few weeks about the possibility of selling our house sooner rather than later. But I don't want to get you worried for NOTHING.......

That sounds like good news. Maybe the stars are finally getting their alignment. I felt all day I needed to do something but ended up doing mostly NOTHING.

I started out the day pretty good as far as accomplishing stuff, then my husband came along and dragged me out for a celebratory lunch. Well, he actually didn't have to drag me - lol. Then when I got home I realized how tired I was and took a nap. Now here I am doing NOTHING when I should be finishing up what I started earlier.

I'll start to worry when you AND hubby start packing. But congratulations on your financial milestone..

Until then I'll worry about NOTHING except why the ratings for the Emmy's have declined..

I try so hard to get you worked up, and why? All for NOTHING. You have to be the most laid back, steady guy I have yet to know - lol.

But for that very reason it's a darn good thing you're the Kommander of this ship. Imagine the rough seas Nucky and I would have this ship going through if you weren't here. Poor tomwed would be in the galley trying to keep all the dishes from breaking and fw would be hanging on for dear life hoping for NOTHING, her favorite pasttime, to return.

So the next time the thought of retiring as Kommander goes through that cool, calm, collected head of yours, just come to this post and refresh your memory as to the NOTHING disaster that would cause.
